Side TripsA Visit to Melaque (San Patricio) For a change of scenery, you may wander over to Melaque (aka San Patricio), 5km (3 miles) from Barra. Its pace is even more laid-back, as though it's stuck in time. A few yachts bob in the harbor, and the palm-lined beach is gorgeous. Restaurants and basic bungalows line the beach. You can walk on the beach from Barra or take one of the frequent local buses from the bus station near the main square in Barra. The bus is marked MELAQUE. To return to Barra, take the bus marked CIHUATLAN. Where to Stay -- The best hotel in town is Larios (tel. 315/355-8058), at Calle Av. Primavera 60, just a block from the beach. Opened in 2007, it has 10 rooms that cost $110 per night, cash only. Other motels in town are half that price but far less nice. As for dining, there are a number of rustic palapa restaurants on the beach and farther along the bay at the end of the beach.
